No. She could go up to a 280 (non x) before she would see any serious bottlenecking.

I have a friend that is needing an upgrade to her PC and I was basically wondering would it bottleneck?

PS: the other upgrades she has in mind are 8GB of RAM and another monitor.

No, the 750 ti is pretty powerful, and so is the i3, She would be safe from bottle necking

Ok well she only really plays Minecraft and some indie games so this is probably the only thing she needs she was looking at the £100-150 mark.

Then she will do perfectly fine with it.
